[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] iheartandroi:
Thats not what the op is saying idiot, he's saying that new tech general have some defects that are cleared up in new versions of the device. He never said huge major defects.

Going out and buying the prime before seeing if there are any problem with it is stupid. I have plenty of money and dishing out the goods to get some nice tech isnt a problem for me...but im not stupid enough to spend money without doing a little research into any defects. I leave it too the noobs who rush out and buy products to report back that their poor gps and bluetooth dont work. Once this is cleared up you damn right ill be buying a prime....but not before they fix this. To all you early adopters who use the excuses " oh i dont care about defects" or " i have the money so i can do it and i want the latest and greatest"...stfu. You know damn well you would rather have all these features working then having to deal with the inconvenience of not having them.

200 bucks says half of the people on here who say they dont care rush back to gamestop or BB to try and exchange their defective units for new ones, bunch of hypocritical morons...

Great post OP, about time someone called some of these guys on their BS!

---------- Post added at 11:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:44 PM ----------

guy seriously?...stfu lol. I have seen you post on other threads before all you do and cause problems. This is actually an insightful thread by the OP. Why are you wasting your time here...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] GCurry:
I pre-ordered a Prime on Dec 4, received Dec 28, returned Dec 29. I bought in because I considered this to be a second-gen tablet from Asus, because it was heavily reviewed and hyped.

I have lots of experience with product introductions from the engr mgmt/exec side, but dismissed my intuition for the pre-order. It took me about a day with product in hand to recalibrate, and "let go." I don't regret sending it back.

Different people look for different things in a tablet. For me, no points for "bleeding edge", not many points for pretty/thin. Lots of points for meets/exceeds spec.

This product intro "feels" like the hardware design was nearly done when a sudden change was made (pretty/aluminum back). The product definition was/is still evolving post FCS and QA seems weak. I hope Asus fixes it, but they weren't the supplier I wanted.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BongoBong:
Not sure why the need for insults but from the OP

As I mentioned in my other post, its a pro's to con's assessment. In my personal assessment the possibility of having some defects is worth the added time of having the product. If the defects turn out to be large its an easy return. In the case of the prime it turned out to be the right choice for me as the problems found are extremely minor for my personal uses. So yes, it does suck that there are problems with my unit, but while a perfect unit would be nice, I am way happier having my prime now with these minor defects then waiting months for the possibility of a fix.

If a new unit comes out and fixes previous problems and I could return for a new one of course I would. Why would that be hypocritical? Because despite being satisfied with my unit as is, I would still prefer one without the minor problems? That certainly is not hypocritical to my stance at all.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nyijedi:
Haha. This 3-post troll is a hoot. Sorry bud, I'm not taking your bait.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pierrekid:
Lol while im gad you find my post insightful, but there really is no need to rude.

As for the other poster, I can see why you think the time with the product matters more than then waiting for a perfect one. However, if the defects take away from full usage of the product, then i really dont see a legimate reason for taking the risk. You are looking at it from the point of view of knowing about the defects and buying it anyways. Im talking about getting the product before ANY reviews come about it. But i do appreciate your post, hopefully there arent any more flame posts lol.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pierrekid:
Hah glad to know im not the only person who thinks you are troll on here. Really have nothing better to do with yourself do you? lol feel sorry you.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BongoBong:
But as I said there is simply a chance that there are defects, no guarantee. You obviously believe the chance that you get an unusable or greatly reduced usefulness is very high while I do not think that is the case, which is I think where a large part of our differing opinions come from.

And what risk are you talking about? If there is indeed a defect you can return the product for a full refund. If there was actually a large defect that greatly effected my use of the prime I absolutely would have returned it and waited for either a fixed version or another tablet that would fit my needs.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pierrekid:
Its not really what i choose to believe but a fact of the industry. New products tend to have more defects during the first iterations of release than those down the line. Thats a fact not just for asus but most tech companies. Its still considered a trial and error period where a mass audience can point out any problems they are experiencing with their device. My question is why deal with the headache of having a defective unit, having to return it or riasking getting out of the 30 day warranty where now you waste more time doing an RMA with asus which could take up to 2 weeks. I just dont see the point of going through all that just to be the first to have it. Lol im pretty sure you could along just fine without having a prime in your hands for an extra couple weeks.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Sokonomi:
If you are one of the lucky ones that get a good prime right off the bat yay for you,

but if you don't, you'll have to wait either way, be it for an RMA, or for the next batch.

So in the end what does it really matter? ;)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BongoBong:
Yes there will be more defects, but you are expecting them to be pretty major and needing a new hardware iteration to fix. Does that happen, sure, but its not a given. The prime release is a fairly good example. Are there problems, yup. But nothing huge (for me). So I could have waited but for what? To get a newer version that has no added functionality for me?

The "headache" you describe is really the only downside for taking a chance on a new product and really its not that big a deal to return a product.

Basically what you think could be a huge headache and problem many do not see as such. Never mind the fact that there is a very decent chance there is no need whatsoever of having to go through that headache.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nyijedi:
The OP clearly wants to get the Prime, can't get it, for whatever reason, and is trying to make himself feel better. Nothing to see here. Move along.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] duglas:
Wait, I thought the Prime was the second generation of the transformer.. So we all did wait till they fixed all the bugs....

I have both and no issues with either.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dandrep:
Now you are judging. It is a fair question to ask why, but if you just want to judge our reasons then the troll charges hold weight.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pierrekid:
Lol wow...

http://phandroid.com/2012/01/09/new...e-tf700t-with-full-1080p-hd-display-revealed/

So... to all those people that said a new model would not be coming out with improvements to the defects found on the prime...what say you? Not trying to step on anyones toes, but it must REALLY suck to be an OG prime owner....to even be called an OG prime owner this early.

I know most of you are going to say its not worth the extra 100 for the new prime but seriously stop kidding yourselfs. Its not a 100 dollars for just a better screen and camera...lol its 100 dollars for what your prime should have been. I dont know about you, but there are plenty of features on my tab that i probably dont use, but reagrdless of whether i use it or not i want everthing to be working. You never know when you might want to use it.

Damn... just my opinion... but it really does suck to be a OG prime owner lol
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nunyabiz:
And when you can buy it in six months, how long will you wait so your not an early adopter?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] chugger93:
I'm not kidding myself. Who the F cares about a better camera? I have a DSLR, and I don't use a dam tablet to take pictures. Nor do I use GPS, that's what my friggin phone is for, and my garmin.

This tablet will still be amazing, well beyond their new release. I don't regret it for a second..and while I'm sitting here playing games at insane FPS that you only dream about...you're off waiting for another 5-6 months for another tablet that may or may not get delayed! Good luck
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pierrekid:
Haha ive got plenty of money to buy a prime, but im not stupid enough to buy it when it first comes out because issues like THIS might come up....Haha your so bitter its priceless. Literally falling out of my seat lmfao.

Lots of lulz in this thread.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pierrekid:
Haha you do realize no game will be able to take advantage of the primes quad core for at least another 2 months? lmfao essentially you have a really powerful device...that does absolutely nothing better than my current tab because no game is optimized yet. SO by the time the NEW prime comes out ill have a better prime that will look better then yours in terms of gaming fps quality....HAVE FUN lmfao!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BongoBong:
Why would we be kidding ourselves? Many of us have a fully functioning tablet for our needs.

The question for us then becomes is an extra 100 dollars worth it for a 1080p display, fully functioning GPS, and better camera. And if the answer to that is yes, then you have to go on and decide if its so much worth it that you are willing to not have your prime for however many months it takes for the new one to get out to the public.

There are likely many who are more then willing to spend that extra 100 for those things. But for me I am not so sure. That would bring my total cost up to around ~800 which is quite expensive, and the upgrades don't really seem like that big a deal to me.

The GPS as I mentioned means little to me. Camera means even less. And while the 1080p would be nice I suppose, there is the question of battery life (time will tell), and how useful having 1080p would really be for a tablet right now. Currently I am finding there are not even that many apps/games that utilize the primes 720p screen.

Plus for the pics we have seen so far the a700 is ugly as sin. Hopefully that changes or the amethyst gray equivalent (you would assume they would make one of these if they are compatible with our docks) isn't so ugly.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pierrekid:
Lmao have fun with your defective prime hah. LOving the hate right now
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ChristoA1:
:rolleyes:

10char
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] chugger93:
pierre is right everyone...we should all return our devices. Where is this hate you speak of? We don't hate you, we just think your a whiny *****
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pierrekid:
Hah keep the hate coming. Im not the one who splurge on a model of the prime that asus botched on. Talk about whiny B****s, I can already see you on the phone with asus being one lmfao.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pierrekid:
o_O

10char
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] chugger93:
Again, how is it botched if I give two ****s about GPS? I have great WIFI strength, and no complaints. Thus...A success
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nyijedi:
You don't have great WiFi strength. I'm not trying to be an ass, as I think I'm still going to keep my Prime in spite of all of this nonsense, but every Prime out there has weak WiFi reception (compared to most other devices) b/c of the back plate.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pierrekid:
Haha yea keep on that " my prime is a success" train. What ever makes you happy buddy. Ill sit tight to enjoy the t700....after a couple weeks of noobs like you buying and finding the defects for me first ;)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] chugger93:
Well I don't travel a hundred feet from my WIFI router, so I don't really have any issues. All I hear is whining in these forums... my god
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nunyabiz:
Never said you didnt have the money. The point I was trying to make was if you waited so you were not "an early adopter", you would be waiting forever. I am not bitter about anything????
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pierrekid:
HAHAHAHAH called out chugger. Why dont you stop lying and tell us how you really feel about the prime? (lmao please actually dont im going to get fired laughing this hard in the office)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nyijedi:
It's fine if the WiFi performance on the Prime is suitable for you. Overall, I think it's suitable for me too, as I don't travel much and I'm not on many different WiFi networks with my tablet. I was just pointing out that the WiFi in all Primes is flawed, that's all (the "my WiFi is perfect" comments I see from a lot of people annoy me ;) ).
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] chugger93:
To each his own
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nunyabiz:
Hate to spoil your hate, but the TF700 will not be available until Q2 (may/june), so I will enjoy my prime until then and then buy the Tf700 or whatever floats my boat at that time, early adopter or not lol.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] chugger93:
agree ;) Same here
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pierrekid:
hah enjoy. Maybe ill take out my og transformer and use my gps to get me to class later on today. Then ill play some games on my transformer since all the ones out right now and for a couple months are all made for my dual core..Man life sucks having the og transformer that takes advantage of everything thats out now. Really sucks having a device that esentially does nothing better then anything out for a higher price tag and defects (prime if you cannot follow)....LMFAO
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] chugger93:
Higher price tag means nothing to me dude. I make quite a bit for a living, thus buying $1400 lens for my camera and then some... I will buy whatever is best out at the time. That is how I roll. So cram!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pierrekid:
Lmfao so essentially you are ignorant when it comes to your money....lmfao classic. Btw, im an MD down at uhealth systems, so i kinda make alot of money myself ;). Difference between you and me, i spend my money wisely, while you.....lmfao
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nunyabiz:
Good one, I bow down to your superiority. Even though I wonder why you need a GPS to find your way to school lol. I dont know of any games that work on the OG transformer that wont work on the prime. Oh and btw I have an OG transformer and an Ipad so woo hoo for me too.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Azeolus:
Really? You're going to class, but you're already an MD? Sure kid, keep talking. I also find it quite difficult to believe you could be an MD with the atrocious grammar and spelling you've displayed here.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pierrekid:
Big campus lol, with that new feature google has which displays the building and the new semester starting, nice to have a device i can look at on a big screen to show me which building my class is in. Im actually taking courses into neurosurgery to branch out in my practice.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pierrekid:
Read my post next post lmfao....
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pierrekid:
Lmfao and wtf do you know about medicine haha. We each specialize a specific area. My current area is orthopedics. But i would like to get into neuro hence me taking courses at night. And as for my grammer...its a forum lmfao. My grammer only counts when im writing prescriptions and sending patients to diferent areas of the hospital. And what might i ask do you do for a living?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dkb218:
What self-respecting techie waits until a 2nd generation offering? To date, I've purchased 5 devices on or before the day they came to market. Of course there may be problems with production. So? If there wasn't, would XDA be here?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pierrekid:
Lol yes there would be lmfao
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dkb218:
No... We here at XDA actually call up these tech giants and ask them to input bugs. Then we get a group of tech minded folk to work on the problems. When I joined XDA, there was no such thing as Android. It was Windows Mobile and the version of WM where if your battery died, you lost all your data. XDA fix all that. We LIKE BUGS! The MORE the better.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nyijedi:
This guy is a hoot.

Didn't mean to "call you out," chugger. If the Prime is suitable for your needs, keep it and be happy with it. This is what I'll most likely be doing, even though I have the option of returning it to Newegg any time over the next 3 weeks. Unfortunately, there are no other tablets currently out there that suit me, and I don't want to wait until possibly June.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] JoeyLe:
Hey guy who started this topic?

Sent from my TF201 btw, and yes Im going to return it. But you should just stfu and leave people if they are happy with what they bought.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Borna_bkpdata:
Hi all,

please if someone can help me solve problem.

I got few days ago Touch Diamond2. It has WM6.1 ROM on it. I tried to upgrade with official ROM from htc.com to wm6.5 but it hangs on 18% with error "communication error". Phone turned on in recovery mode. After that i tried flashing with custom roms but no luck again. It hangs on HTC screen when booting and nothing happens. I flashed it back with shipped 6.1 ROM from HTCpedia and it started normal.

When i start it in boot load mode it states 1.33 Olinex SPL. Do i need to put original hardSPL before upgrading to official ROM or there is something else i am missing?

Tnx in advance
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hakim Rahman:
updating your Hard-Spl to HSPL 1.83 first ! in order to flash WM 6.5 rom or custom rom
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Borna_bkpdata:
Hi and tnx for quick answer.

Just to confirm. I need to update even if I want to flash official WM6.5 rom from htc.com?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hakim Rahman:
I think it could, try it !
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netrial:
Doesn't the official WM6.5 ROM update include an embedded SPL though? Although if flashing from official ROM to custom ROM or vice versa you'd definitely need to update HSPL.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] manish dubey:
Please Read Carefully the instruction for installing HSPL 1.83 or better to upgrade it to 2.51.OliNex.Make Sure U Have a internet connection on as hspl needs internet to install.
[General Questions and Answers] puujalka:
What i understand is that you need ROM's to be *.md5, almost every ROM is *.zip, how do i flash that one? i need flash through odin because my galaxy went softbricked.
[General Questions and Answers] AliR2:
what do yo mean by soft brick ?? u cant go to recovery mode ??

install Offical rom then hack it with a kernel , go to recovery mode and install rom

there isnt anyway to install custom zip rom from odin

yeah, i figured this one out also and now it's working again :D sry for quick topic :rolleyes:

miniHDMI much better than MHL. Why Samsung has put it in the all new models? I want normaly use my microusb port for usb-otg or data-connection with hdmi. But I can't because of stupid MHL. Why not do as well as in Motorola Razr?

And besides why it was necessary to remove normal VGA TV-out (like in samsung galaxy s i9000) from all new models?

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TAL333:
I would like opinion on where the best location for the storage of applications would be. I assume that the 465Mb of internal memory cannot be used as a reverse ramdisk or virtual memory in any way, so it’s only good for app storage. Being that it is local to the mainboard wouldn’t execution be quicker and less processor intensive keeping the majority of apps stored internally and only loading excess apps to link2sd ext. Or would the process by which link2sd functions somehow allow faster data transfers than being held internally? I don’t know. I’d like to know.

Thank you.
